Samsung Keyboard!!! - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone please tell me how to teach the STUPID Samsung keyboard on the S6/Edge a new word, or a word/letter that I don't want it to keep autocorrecting every single time!!
I've been trying to teach it "N" or "n" as I use that in place of "and" quite often, but every single time since the phones been released, its been turning it into "now" or "no". So frustrating.
This is just a single example of hundreds of my words it corrects, for instance, when I write "Hi" at the top of an email, it changes it to "His". Seriously, what kind of a joke is this by Samsung on all of us?
In the settings it says that any words entered repeatedly over a week will be added to the dictionary, but this is obviously bs, as not a single one of my words has been added so far, and I repeat them frequently on purpose!
Please help me out someone, this is driving me up the wall. I know I can change keyboards, but these days in trying to stand out keyboards are adding too much useless crap, instead of good features (please suggest some that have the same features available such as emojis etc)
I look forward to your replies!

Choose between Swiftkey Keyboard and Google Keyboard. I personally use both, I switch for certain purposes.

Hit the thanks button already.
Don't be ridiculous, the emoji's character code, which I assume is ASCII are all the same throughout the computer world. They just look different based on how a computer or app interprets the code.

Lets not forget the main question here, how to teach the keyboard a new word? Samsung claims it learns your writing style, but clearly this is not the case. Even when I click the suggested word, 50 times, it doesn't add it to the dictionary, so this topic is still open.
As for the emojis, of course each app interprets the same code with its own images, but I'm after the end user experience here, so the choice of emoji images used are important to me.
kind regards

SMSing with 1 hand..

I recently got the JasJam and wanted to know is it possible for a developer to be able to write a code for a '123' keyboard with the 'abc' letters on each number to appear when typing an sms with T9 functionality.
Your replies would be much appreciated..
Thanx.
lol, I would probably be prepared to be flamed for this...
And we wonder why people get in accidents...
I've never seen anything like what you are asking for though, and I think that it would still be very hard to do something like this while driving since it's a touch screen...
actually i think it'd be easier if somebody could write a code to modify the normal keyboard to accept sliding...
that is, if you poke at G then move to H and release at H, H gets typed not G
this makes things very easy to use 1 handed as you can keep your finger pressed to verify what is being typed before actually typing the letter

no he has a valid point... trying to type in porn websites on your hermes while you're masturbating is quite tricky.
also... yes it is possible to do; if MS have released docs on writing your own keyboard map, then it could easily be done
you could try the phone pad cab in the ftp under tools and programs, it gives you the option to have the onscreen keyboard work like a normal phone pad with t9 predictive text
Well, there is an application that I use for one hand SMS. I don't actually use it when I am driving, however I do use it when I don't feel like sliding the keyboard. The app is "Tengo Thumb" and below is the URL and it is not free.

Thanx for the replies. Will try TenGo and let u know how it works out..

phone cab is the way to go. Install it, then soft reset and select it instead of the on screen keyboard and you tap on your screen as if its a phone with a keypad.
Pls excuse me..
I am having diffculties locating the Phone cab file..
Pls help.
Installed TengoThumb but it takes time getting used to.
Thanx in advanced.
Found it.
Thanx for your help gents.

@kastro,
I have never used Phone-Pad so I am interested on you thought between the two products.
The reason why i ask this is because it is difficult to type an sms when driving...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In the this country it is not only difficult but illegal! I nearly got killed by somebody using his phone while driving.
for those that don't know after installing the phone cab and restarting you have to select the onscreen keyboard and then press the arrow next the keyboard button
as for how it works, I find it pretty responsive, the t9 works as well as other phones, although if your a fast typer you can outpace the phone sometimes, I didn't find it a big problem.
the only real negatives I found was leaving fingerprints on half myscreen and the phone pad is a lot taller than the normal keyboard
OMg txting while driving
@lpsi2000
Phone pad is much better and more practical to use. It's exactly like using a normal keypad to type T9 sms's - it's actually even better..
The driving was simply an example to 1 hand typing. I started the thread cos there was no possible way i could continue with the Jasjam using its current features to type out an SMS.
And yes, it is illegal in my country... But who obeys the laws at the best of times?
i use the full keyboard while driving yes yes, flame me now...
but actually it works out kinda better, as i can put both hands on the wheel while holding the keyboard and still keep my eyes on the road...
WARNING, do not try this at home, this is a stunt performed by a professional with years and years of texting experience. I will not be held responsible for your inability to multi-task
@kastro,
Thanks for the tip and I will give it a shot.
@shogunmark,
Using the full keyboard while driving is definitely not an easy task especially at night. I agree with the warning, please do not try at home.

Custom Dictionary

Hey guys.
I've been using blackberries for years, and only used the iphone as a daily driver touchscreen device back when it came out. Now, the autocorrect is giving me stress for the most part, because I do and don't need it. I use the ISC keyboard from the app store and I found most of the dictionaries, and they work fine. But I also speak Papiamentu, which is spoken on three islands, Curacao, Bonaire, and Aruba. When I type in papiamentu, it always tries to change every single word which gets really annoying since I type in papiamentu every day.
Now, I wanted to create my own dictionary, and I found a thread on XDA on how to create my own dictionary, but after reading it I felt like killing myself.
Is there any other way I can "teach" my phone papiamentu the same way I teach any other dictionary a new word? Like double tap on the word and it saves it. That again sounds like it's going to take forever to do. I have a papiamentu dictionary and I'm pretty sure I can find an electronic one where I can copy paste all the words.
For now I will just use another input language which I don't have a dictionary for, that way it wont autocorrect anything, but I was just wondering if it was possible. Thanks
You can use Swype and it will learn any word you manually input.

Swype problem in official ICS update - Alternative Free Input Method

I have had issues with Swype since installing the first ICS, where it would stop working, cause the screen to freeze at the most inconvenience times. I thought I was alone with this problem, it appears not here.
I tried troubleshooting, reinstalling, clearing cache, uninstalling, reinstalling, fresh boot with nothing else loaded, nothing worked and I don't know what my problem must of been and was surprised I couldn't find anything else with it.
I searched for an alternative keyboard that would cut the mustard, I don't mind paying for things, but found slideIt not particularly good on the trial, also I do like the way Swype worked when it worked, so was looking for something similar, think I found it below.
I'm not one to normally worry about bothering anyone else, however after my woes of Swype and getting pretty much to the point of going back to Gingerbread because of it I have been very impressed, you can also utilize the unconventional keyboard layout if you wish.
Give it a go, worth it, for free anyway!

I always use stock ROM or AOSP.
I format system every Time I went frm one type to other.
And I only use Swype as I'm used to it and even thinking about typing is tyring.

Is my GS3 cooler than my iPhone 4 ?? Help me MAKE IT COOLER :)

I know this might be the wrong question...? So I'm going to start with a simple disclaimer. No fighting or flaming here, I'm asking a serious question.
Here's the deal, I've been an iPhone user for 5 years since the original release in June 2007... I've owned every iPhone... ALL HAVE BEEN IN T-MOBILE USA SO I HAVE BEEN STUCK USING EDGE ON THEM ALL.
I tried another Android phone (LG O3D) before, but couldn't stick with it for some technical reasons... but I'll leave those discussions for the LG area.
So I paid high dollar and got myself a shiny new SGS3 for T-mobile to use my 4G and I did NOT get it on contract discount. So far I like it, its DIFFERENT from iPhone, and I'm missing a few of the jailbreaking tweaks I got used too over the years. And on the flip side, I'm really enjoying some of the cool features Android offer's out of the box.
So, can you guys help me make my GS3 as cool (or COOLER) than my iPhone?
Here's a quick list of a few things I miss on my iPhone (realize most of these are 3rd party apps from Cydia after jailbreaking)
Ringer X (set individual rings for each contact. MMS/SMS/EMAIL/PHONE CALL/ETC... and you can set ignore mute to create a ALWAYS RING WHITE LIST of Family members (for example), very nice.)
Lockscreen info (Shows current email headers, and has the ability to mark each read with a single click, useful for lots of emails, double clicking shows the entire email)
EMAIL IN GENERAL, I have NOT found any email app yet that can handle displaying desktop formatted emails properly for Android - and I can't understand why. Fit to Width seems to be a feature missing from android email apps, and either I'm crazy, or no one on Android has seen a fit to screen or fit to width email you can ZOOM in to and read the details on. VERY STRANGE TO ME.
There are a few apps that are cross platform that just work different on iPhone vs Android, and I liked the way they worked on iPhone so to me they seem "wrong" on android (not saying they are, just saying I'm not used to the way they work on this platform vs the other one) A good example is my security camera video program. Same app, same distributor, but the iPhone version has (for example) when you launch it - it takes you straight to the live view mode so you can see your cameras.. the android version doesn't have this ability - it wants me to navigate thru the menu's to click on LIVE VIEW, and then it doesn't retain the 4-way camera position everytime. Again, it just works DIFFERENT.
My car alarm app, on Android seems to crash 50% of the time while loading. This has been really annoying, especially as I walk thru the mall trying to start my car remotely. By the time I realize the app crashed, have to clear it from ram, re-launch wait again, well... you get it..frustration.
I'm really trying and wanting to LOVE Android - seriously. But obviously I need some guidance and maybe be shown the coolness of android over iphone... realize that after 5 years on iPhone, and having gone thru EVERY version of iOS since v 1.01 (or v1.02, I can't remember) I'm very familiar and comfortable with iOS - but by that same token, I'm bored too... I want something new and cool.
HELP ME PLEASE.
Many thanks in Advance.
I was a long time iOS user too (started with 1.0.3 in September 2007), I changed to Android about one year and a half now and nowadays I really prefer Android phones, Android has some really nice features. I can't help you with all the questions but I will try.
First of all, are you using the TouchWiz or have you tried other roms? TW has nice features but I really prefer a purer Android experience. With other roms you'll have freedom to personalize and change whatever you want on your phone, in my opinion this is one of the coolest things on Android. I believe CM9 (CyanogenMod9) is a good rom, but there are many other great roms available. If you want to try other roms you can look for it on the Development forums, and you can return to Samsung official rom when you want to.
1. To select specific ringtones you should look for your contact (People or dialer app), when you open it press the menu button and you'll see the option "Set ringtone".
2. I don't know any app to replace the 'lockscreen info', I believe something similar is coming to Android Jellybean, but you could use any app like 'Widget Locker' and use GMail widgets by now, it's not the same but should work.
For me the best email app ever is GMail... I got your point but I've never had any problems with it. I don't use any security camera or car alarm app on my Android phones, so I can't help you with this too, but there's a feature available on some roms (like AOKP) that should help you with this car alarm problem it's the 'hold back to kill' option, you just hold the back button and it instantly kills the crashed app. Although you can always long press the home button to see recent apps and then slide the crashed rom, it should kill the app from ram quickly.
If I remember any better options for this problems I will reply here, but I hope it helps you enjoy your new Galaxy SIII.

You can configure tasker and minimalistic text to display unread emails, missed texts, missed calls etc. Tasker is a little expensive if you're just looking for and widget with the number of unread emails since there are a ton of dedicated widgets for that, but tasker is a lot more flexible and you can configure it to do a lot of other things too like nfc actions.
Not sure if you've looked into these email apps...I don't use them but hear about their popularity. K-9 and Kaiten.

Well I'm not as knowledgeable as most of these guys when it comes to ask this android but I too just came over from a jail broken iPhone. But I've been using android like a mistress for over a year and came up with a few things:
Executive assistant is the closest app I found to replace Lock Info. But I don't use it anymore since I can drop down NC from lock screen to see what I missed. Gmail calendars can text you alerts.
Missed It allows you to create some pretty cool notifications in your launcher.
Prefixer allows you to alter your number dialed with default dialer. Works great for auto area codes or extended speed dial numbers...
I switch between Swype and Swift key
Good luck!

Pretty much all the "cool" features are in stock android. Edit contact with any ringtone should do it. Switch out the contact icon on the bottom (don't need it you can see contacts in the green phone icon)with gmail and It will be on your lock screen. This device is still pretty new so some of the app delvs need to catch up. Once you learn your way around Android you 'll see that JBing is nothing more than a theme in Android.
Have fun learning

as far as the ringtone thing, what I'm taking about specifically is with a jail break app called ringer x I am able to set ringtones for a contact call, sms, email. 3 unique tones for 3 unique actions from the same contact.
Plus you can tell it ignore mute, and no matter what your ringer setting is, it will make noise (ring) at the volume you set in the contact. It's pretty great, especially for those of us with kids.
And I agree android is a learning curve.

help with colouring app for my daugter

Hi and hello to all, sorry if I posted in wrong section but I guess its the right one.
I am rather clever person so I should cope, but need guide and help to do so.
I have daughter and wish to create colouring app without buttons like share or any adverts (basically anything that will make her get out of application and start to call foreign country and make my bill horrendously big etc.)
so for start I downloaded all android SDK and Studio.
My idea is to have menu with pictures (ill make those out of disney cartoons in photoshop)
once clicked it will enlarge and show colour pallet (preferably 256 colours, tiny boxes) that she could touch at top of screen,
and enlarged picture at bottom where she could fill empty spaces with desired colours.
device im intend to use is Samsung s4 or s5 my wifes or note 4 which im willing to get soon
I know I might ask for quite a lot but honestly its beyond me. I have tried to google some libs but after 6h I failed miserably.

Perhaps you wish for a child's mode or guest mode in which only certain apps can be accessed? Because what you are suggesting is making an app that you can enter, but can't leave. How will you get out of it when you need to?
Try an applocker that can be disabled/reenabled via a password... This way you can only make a coloring app (and other games) available to her unless she has a special password. Apps like this should block the phone, gallery, messaging, or anything else you wish for her not to access.
Try something like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pluggdd.SmartAppLocker , but if you don't like this then there are a plethora of other alternatives.
Now you should be able to allow her to access several apps and games that you deem to be appropriate for her, then, when you need your phone you can exit it and use it however you please.
thanks that will solve a lot of my problems :good: but yet all this children apps have adverts that i dont want her to click and still i would like to create colouring app just for her.
